Gradient boosting tree for 1H-MRS Alzheimer diagnosis
International Journal of Data Mining and Bioinformatics, 2020•inderscienceonline.com
In recent years, increasing attention is drawn to Early-Onset Alzheimer's Disease (EOAD).
As effective biomarkers for EOAD, the brain metabolites, measured by proton magnetic
resonance spectroscopy (1H-MRS), are significantly sensitive to the brain metabolite
changes in dementia patients. This work aims to design an effective EOAD computer-aided
system through mining the 1H-MRS data with advanced machine learning techniques.
Specifically, our method first adopts Gradient Boosting Decision Tree (GBDT) to learn the 1H …

This work aims to design an effective EOAD computer-aided system through mining the 1H-MRS data with advanced machine learning techniques. Specifically, our method first adopts Gradient Boosting Decision Tree (GBDT) to learn the 1H-MRS biomarkers of EOAD patients, which are then used to construct the final classifier for Alzheimer diagnosis. To validate our proposal, we have conducted comprehensive experiments for evaluation and the experimental results clearly demonstrate the effectiveness of our method.
